    I can help with some of your questions:
    1. The ATI 3650 is a good performance card with DDR3 - not sure on your game titles, but plays Far Cry and a few of the older FPS I use very well.
    2. Yes can read & write CDs/DVDs just fine
    3. If your burning your DVDs, the region code should not matter.

    Maybe if you could actually be more specific someone may be able to help you in the manner you're wanting them to (given the number of your posts asking the same question).

    I'm sure you can understand it's impossible for someone to list EVERY game that the FW can play effortlessly, especially as graphics detail settings and display resolutions are tweakable in each game.

    With that said, what games would you like to work with the FW, and what detail would you like them to be at?
